Shenk's Homestead distillery Sour Mash Whiskey honours the legacy of historic American whiskey figure John Shenk, who in 1753 founded a distillery that was to become known as Michter's in the 20th Century. It is made in Kentucky according to the traditional Sour Mash process whereby a portion of the previously distilled whiskey mash (referred to as "setback") is added into the next batch. This full bodied small batch whiskey is 91.2 proof.

Shenks is a Sour Mash Whiskey ade with a substantial amount of rye. Following the success of the 2019 and and 2020 releases where some Chinquapin oak barrels were used during maturation, the 2021 release also includes use of this oak. The wood has been naturally air-dried and seasoned for over 3 years and the Chinquapin oak has been charred at various char levels for the aging of some of the whiskey. This release sees a balanced whiskey with an elegant body and finish.

Product Description

The Legacy SeriesIn 1753, Swiss Mennonite farmer John Shenk founded Shenk’s distillery, which was later renamed Bomberger’s Distillery in the 1800s before having its name changed once again to Michter’s Distillery in the mid-20th Century. It is this great heritage that we honor with the release of Bomberger’s Declaration and Shenk’s Homestead which comprise our Michter’s Legacy Series.
